About De Vliegende Hollander

De Vliegende Hollander (The Flying Dutchman) at Efteling is an indoor-outdoor water coaster opened in 2007, themed to the legend of the ghost ship. The first half is an enclosed dark ride through cursed sea scenes; the second half emerges outside for a 60-foot drop and water splashdown. Total ride duration around 4 minutes.

De Vliegende Hollander queues are typically 40-70 minutes on busy days. The dark-ride portion adds significant value over a standard water coaster - it is one of the most thematically-detailed water rides in Europe. Located in the Ruigrijk area.
